Abstract

Magnetoelectric (ME) composites exhibit extremely high sensitivity for magnetic field at the fixed resonant frequency, due to the strong strain-mediated ME coupling. However, wideband magnetic field detection is still challenging, as the ME coefficient depends strongly on the frequency. In this work, we propose a magnetoelectric sensor composed of three ME units in series/parallel connections, which works at dual modes to extend the frequency range with high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The SNR is enhanced by about 22.68 dB and the bandwidth is broadened from 100 Hz to 1 kHz, with a high sensitivity for frequency conversion mode by series/parallel connections. Limits of detections (LoDs) as low as 207 pT and 460 pT are demonstrated at 1 kHz and 100 kHz, respectively, showing promising applications in wideband magnetic field detection.
